Condo Painting FAQs: Everything You Need to Know

How long does it typically take to paint my condo?

For a refresh, (same colour): One day, but sometimes can be two. For a colour change: Two days, but sometimes can be one.

What should I expect from a professional painter?

At Paint My Condo, our dedicated sales team handles the quotes, leaving our expert painters to focus solely on delivering outstanding results. From our sales team, when you call, email, or text us, you’ll receive a prompt response to get your painting project started.

From our painters, you can expect premium service, high quality paints from top manufacturers, and streamlined processes to ensure all your painting needs are met. Having two dedicated teams of sales professionals and painters ensures that you’re receiving dedicated service that you can rely on.

Is the quote I see online the final price I will pay?

Yes. What you see, is what you pay. All materials and prep work included.

What kind of paint do you use?

We use the top grades of paint from every manufacturer, whether it be Dulux, Sherwin-Williams or Benjamin Moore.

When you hire a painter, who buys the paint?

At Paint My Condo, the painter does. The price for everything is included in the online quote.

What do I have to do to prepare my house for painting?

We ask that you remove wall art and pictures, empty closets (if they will be painted), and move furniture to the middle of the room—about three feet away from the walls. We can assist with heavy items.

We also send you a pre-arrival checklist before we arrive to paint your condo. This covers everything in detail, including information about what you’ll need to remove, clean, or move. You can view this pre-arrival checklist here.

Do you have to rinse walls after washing before painting?

Nope. No need to rinse or wash walls before painting. We will give all walls scuff sand prior to applying any paints on the wall to remove debris and dirt.

Do professional painters clean baseboards before painting?

Before painting, we will wipe them down. However, if they require extra cleaning, there may be additional charge for this at the time of invoicing.

Do you offer popcorn ceiling removal services in Toronto?

Yes, our professional painting company in Toronto, Paint My Condo, offers popcorn ceiling removal. We have a skilled team dedicated to removing outdated popcorn textures, providing a modern and clean look to your ceilings. 

Do I have to move my own furniture before the painters come?

We can help move large items, but not personal items. This includes art, valuables or personal belongings. Be sure to give us a heads up so we can provide appropriate staffing to get those items moved.

Is PMC covered by WSIB and Liability Insurance?

PMC is fully WSIB compliant and carries $5,000,000 in liability insurance, well above the $2,000,000 industry standard. We are also bonded for good measure.

What forms of payment do you accept?

Our preferred method of payment is Email Money Transfers for their ease of use and convenience. However, we accept all forms of payment including Cash, Cheque, or Credit Card, as well.

Do you use your own employees or do you use sub-contractors?

Both! We use a combination of salaried employees and exclusive to us sub-contractors.

Do you offer a warranty?

Yes, all of our condo painting projects come with an industry leading 3 year warranty.

Can I choose a specific brand of paint to use?

Yes, you can. However, an additional cost may occur since your price already includes the highest quality paint from top manufacturers. We are happy to substitute this out for a brand of your choice.

I already have some paint. Will you use it?

Yes, we will credit you $25 per gallon for paint provided. Please note, if you do provide your own paint, we cannot provide a warranty as we cannot guarantee its quality or storage conditions.

Can payments be made in instalments?

We require a 40% deposit with 60% of the remaining balance due on completion.

Will there be fumes? I have allergies.

We only use paints with VERY low or zero VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds). Smells will be very minimal, if at all. All paints are safe for human interaction.

Can you sleep in a freshly painted apartment?

Yes, all of our paints are safe for human interaction. Make sure to have proper air circulation throughout your home.

Will you protect my floors/carpet?

Yes. We always use drop sheets in areas of work. If you prefer an extra layer of precaution, we offer the option to lay down paper or Ram Board for an additional cost. This is particularly beneficial for larger renos, spaces with newly installed floors, or upscale apartments and condos. If requested, we can provide pricing for this service during the estimate stage.

Do you provide touch up paint after?

Any remaining paint is left with the homeowner for later use as touch up paint. Upon request, we will remove and safely dispose of any leftover paint.
